Depart Hoi An for Hue via the Hai Van Pass. Stop at the top to enjoy amazing views of Lang Co Bay and Da Nang city. The drive takes about 3.5 hours.

Upon arrival in Hue, we will visit:

Imperial Citadel: Hue’s most important attraction, containing the Imperial City, the Forbidden Purple City and the former Emperor’s private residence.

Thien Mu Pagoda considered by many to be the unofficial symbol of Hue. It is an active Buddhist monastery dating back to 1601. One of its most poignant displays is a car belonging to a former monk who, in 1963, drove to Saigon and set himself alight in protest against the South Vietnamese regime and its cruel treatment of Buddhist monks and followers.

Enjoy lunch in a local restaurant.

After lunch we visit one of the royal tombs. Either that of Khai Dinh or Tu Duc’s tomb set among lakes and gardens.
